It turns out that he is a 15 year old Asian kid.

I know, I felt like posting it. For the people who haven't seen it.

I first saw it about 9 months ago.

It's pretty good for a 15 year old.
He's probably been playing since he was around 8.
If I practiced endlessly for the next year, I could probably get near that skill level.

Ha, I love the minor sounding variation near the end.

In my opinion, Pachelbel's is the "sell-out" of classical music, and very overplayed. This arrangement kept my attention though.

Its pretty sweet.
I'd love to be able to play like that, unfortunately it'll be a while though.

Without a doubt the best arrangement I have ever heard.

Interesting switch to Phrygian along the way, most of the time was just minor, minor pentatonic, and major.

>_> maybe I'm just too knowledgeable in theory, but it's not alltogether too hard, theoretically. I mean, some of the faster parts would require more work, but for the most part, yeah.

Now if he could pull off something like off of Follow the Reaper, for the same time amount? then i'd be ####ing ####ting BRICKS

He's probably related to Herman Li or something.

Guys, he's actually 23 years old, lives in Korea, and has been playing for 6 years self taught with only 1 month formal training. Search for "funtwo" on youtube to find interviews with him (but they are in Korean) and search for "funtwo DC" to actually see his face while he plays at the Korean ambassador's in Washington DC.

Aside from that yeah, it's great... I put the song on my iPod after hearing it the first time.

I like how he gets the drumming done on that guitar.
Amazing!

There are hundreds of videos of various people playing the "JerryC" Canon on Youtube. Funtwo's is one of the better ones.
